Battle of Bosque Formosa

The Battle of Bosque Formosa occurred in 1583 during the Anglo-Spanish War when England attacked the Spanish Empire's settlement of Bosque Formosa in South America. The English musketeers, hussars, and rockets assaulted the Spanish settlement after skirmishing with a few Spanish troops near Terra de Prata, and the English killed the few remaining Spanish troops in Bosque Formosa. English grenadiers destroyed the mills and the town center of Bosque Formosa as musketeers razed the barracks and massacred the fleeing Spanish settlers, and the result of the action was the total destruction of the Spanish settlement and the surrender of the Spanish forces.
